Tech/Engineering - Geology
Croatian term or phrase: krovina
"...vapnenci u krovini"

Radi se o geološkom raslojavanju u inženjerskom dokumentu. Pretpostavljam da se krovina odnosi na površinski sloj i dvojim između "surface layer" , "apex", "green roof layer" i sličnih varijanti.

US/Brit varijante?

Hvala unaprijed.

roof – krovina. U geologiji – (1) Stijene koje zaliježu

tijela (magmatsku intruziju, igneous intrusion);
v. fl oor, 2.

top of a bed


Explanation:
top – (1) krovina. (a) U stratigrafiji i naftnoj geologiji
– najgornja ploha (površina, dio) formacije koja se
prva sreće tijekom bušenja. Obično se identificira
prvim pojavljivanjem specifičnih obilježja, kao što
su izrazita promjena litologije i nestanak ili pojava
karakterističnih ili provodnih fosila....
top of a bed – krovina sloja, v. top, 1.
izvor: Englesko-hrvatski enciklopedijski rječnik istraživanja i proizvodnje nafte i plina = English-Croatian encyclopedic dictionary of petroleum exploration & production / Miroslav Perić. Zagreb : INA-Industrija nafte, 2007

Ne odnosi se na površinski sloj, već općenito na gornji sloj stratigrafske jedinice.
